Malric’s Pov

Ava’s words hit me like a thunderbolt.

“What?” I snapped, my voice echoing off the stone walls. “You mean, you knew where she was? You knew all this while?” My fists slammed against the wooden table, rattling the bottles and scrolls resting there. “And you didn’t think I deserved to know?”

Ava flinched but stood her ground, her calm eyes betraying a hint of guilt. “Malric, listen—”

“Don’t tell me to listen!” I growled, my voice harsh, my chest burning with the fury I’d been holding for weeks. “You watched me tear down every den, every lair, every bloody forest looking for her and you stood there, knowing this?”

“I didn’t know how to tell you,” Ava said, her tone steady but quiet. “Because where she is… it’s not a place anyone should go.”

Her words slowed me down. Just for a second.

I stared at her. “Where?” My voice lowered to a dangerous whisper. “Where is she, Ava?”

She hesitated, then turned toward the table. “Come here.”

I stepped closer, my pulse pounding as she unf

    Delilah's PovThe balcony overlooked the entire stretch of Velmora, its stone paths, its clustered rooftops, its towering pines brushing the sky like ancient sentinels. From here, the town looked peaceful... almost too peaceful, considering everything that had happened.I rested my hands on the cold rail, letting the wind carry away the last traces of yesterday's chaos."How does it feel to be the official Luna of Velmora?"Reyna's voice cut through my thoughts, full of mischief and curiosity. She popped up beside me, her eyes narrowed dramatically as if she were studying me for cracks.I blinked, staring ahead."I don't know. It feels surreal. It feels... like a dream? Or maybe a joke. I don't even know what to say."She nudged me with her elbow, nose wrinkling."You're going to do just fine. Anybody would die to be in your shoes."I raised a brow and glanced sideways."Would you?""Definitely not," she said immediately, placing her hand over her chest like she had been personally vi

    Malric's Pov The Hall of Verdict carried a silence that felt older than every brick laid in it.Its pillars stood like watchful sentinels, and the elders-robed, rigid, and grim-watched me with eyes that had judged kings before me.Caleb sat at my right.Delilah at my left.Islode hovered beside Caleb, fingers wringing together like someone already tasting fear.Everyone was settled, murmurs crawling across the hall like restless shadows.Caleb leaned closer. "Father... what is this? What happened? Why summon everyone?""We shall see," I said. Calm. Controlled.But inside, my wolf paced, baring teeth.The elders whispered to one another. High-ranking wolves frowned, uneasy. Warriors stiffened along the edges of the room, sensing the storm beneath my tone.I stood.The whispering died instantly."I know this sudden gathering seems strange," I began, my voice carrying through the chamber, "but there is an issue that has plagued both myself... and my Luna."A low ripple of murmurs follow

    Delilah's Pov We were still fixing each other's clothes as we walked back toward the ceremony.My legs felt like jelly, Malric's hair was messed up, and my lips were definitely too swollen for public consumption."Delilah," he whispered, laughing under his breath, "walk normally, please. Everyone will suspect."I hissed at him. "I AM walking normally. You disrupted my bones.""Disrupted?"His grin widened."Should I disrupt them again tonight?""Malric!"I smacked his chest, and he grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckles like a smug devil.By the time we made it back into the open space, music was still playing and everyone was distracted, thank the Moon Goddess. We slipped toward the tables like two teenagers who skipped school.But one person was watching us.Reyna.Her arms were crossed.Her eyebrow was raised to the sky.She looked like a mother who caught her child sneaking out at 2 a.m."Oh," she said loudly the moment we approached, "WELL, WELL, WELL..."Malric muttered, "Moon

    Delilah's Pov Reyna practically screamed straight into my eardrum."NO, NO, NO, NO, NO-WAIT. Is that a pimple on your face? No. You're supposed to look PERFECT today!"I jerked back. "Reyna, calm down! It's one pimple. ONE."She turned to the two women doing my makeup like a general briefing her soldiers before battle."You see that thing on her cheek? Erase it. I don't want to SEE it. I don't want to remember it existed. I don't even want the universe to know it ever happened."I put my hand over hers. "Reyna. Calm down.""No! I will not calm down. You are getting official today. The whole kingdom is going to be there. The elders, the council, the wolves, the spirits, the ancestors-EVERYBODY. You must look like the Moon Goddess carved you herself."I tried not to laugh... and failed."Reyna, you're overreacting.""I AM NOT. Everyone is stressing me out, the food, the decorations, the elders asking dumb questions, you know what, I'm coming, I'm coming- I need to check something!"She

    Malric's Pov Weeks had passed.Weeks since Verret's death.Weeks since Celia's.Weeks since everything shattered and somehow rebuilt itself again.The kingdom had steadied. The air no longer felt as heavy as before. People laughed again, walked freely again. Life, as it always does, found its way back to normal.Except for one thing.Delilah and I... still hadn't talked.Not properly.The silence between us wasn't angry - just full. Full of things we hadn't said, full of moments we didn't know how to begin unraveling. Everywhere I went, I felt the weight of her absence in a way that tightened my chest.So I finally told myself enough.Enough running. Enough waiting.I went straight to her chambers - empty.I checked the gardens next. Her quiet spot under the sycamore tree. And there she was... knitting."Delilah?" I called softly.She turned slightly. "Malric."I walked over and sat down behind her, close enough to feel her breath but not touch her. I didn't trust my hands not to rea

    Delilah's PovThree days.Three days of pretending that the clock ticking inside Verret's body wasn't winding down.Three days of laughing at his stupid jokes even when his lips trembled from weakness.Three days of eating with him in his room, watching him go pale a little more each sunrise.Three days of trying not to cry every time his fingers brushed mine.Reyna and Alyssa barely left my side. They practically bathed me themselves, fed me, changed the bandage on my stomach. The pain in my belly had completely disappeared. My strength had returned. My skin had color again.But Verret... Verret was getting worse.After bathing, I wore a clean dress and headed straight to his chamber. I expected him lying on the bed, half-asleep, forcing a smirk at me like always.But the room was empty.The blankets were tossed aside. His clothes were gone. The air felt cold.My heart dropped to my knees."What... what is this?" I whispered to no one.I grabbed a passing maid. "Where's Verret?""He
